First paragraph of my 2Syn paper

The views on Ecology in the past are clearly seen in John Muir’s written speech called “The National Parks and Forest Reservations”. This article discusses the struggles Muir faces in his efforts to conserve the United States’ national forests. What Muir didn’t consider was the fact that when trying to make real progress in the environment there has to be a global understanding and participation. This realistic outlook on this issue is discussed in the article The Shipbreakers by William Langeweische.

After reading this first paragraph what do you think my paper is about?

  1. i liked your first paragraph i do believe you are on the right track. After reading the first paragraph I believe your paper is about two articles about the environmental advantages and struggles to make the world a better environment for everyone.

  2. I think that after reading your first paragraph that you are going to discuss how these two different articles are going to effect Muir. Also how it effects the issue you talked about as well.

  3. After reading the paragraph, it looks like this paper is going to be dealing with ecology and some of the different views on it. It looks like there are two main documents, a speech and an article with two different outlooks on efforts to conserve the national forests of the United States. It is a very good opening paragraph and I knew exactly what the paper was about from just reading the introduction. Good job!
